JOSH KELLY has issued a double call out to Conor Benn and Chris Eubank Jr.
Eubank beat Benn in their second generation grudge match in April after 12 thrilling rounds.
The two are contracted for a rematch but Eubank, 35, was hospitalised for two days after victory due to severe dehydration.
He missed the 160lb middleweight limit by an agonising 0.05lb – costing him a £375,000 fine – and had a 10lb reydration clause.
And Benn also had to jump over a stone from his regular fighting weight of 147lb.
So Kelly – now at 154lb at super-welterweight – is open to welcoming Benn to the division or stepping up to fight Eubank.

“If he can’t make 147 anymore, or struggles to get down there, I’m the biggest guy at 154.”
Kelly is even willing to meet Benn at a 157lb catchweight clash, adding: “In a heartbeat.

“It wouldn’t even be a question. It would just be like, ‘Yes, sign, done.’”
Kelly, 31, returns on Friday in Newcastle against Romanian Flavius Biea but has big-money bouts against the likes of Benn, 28, in his sights.
He said: “Conor’s a very clever fighter in terms of marketing. I should take a leaf out of his book. I should start shouting everybody out.
“I should just say, ‘I’m only fighting the ones who are going to make me the most money’.”
